About Tamadoggo
Overview
Tamadoggo is a smart pet journal for dogs and cats that keeps walks, food changes, weight checks, milestones and vet visits on a single timeline. Every month opens as its own chapter with the season, a line such as "9 walks · 2 vet visits" and a mosaic of that month's photos, so scrolling back through a year reads like a book.
The journal runs as an iPhone and Android app, and one person built it without a team or investors. A Pro subscription adds a background AI that scans vet paperwork into structured entries, points out patterns across the timeline and writes a monthly letter. Tamadoggo has no chat interface and nothing to prompt.
Key Benefits
- The free journal covers unlimited entries for one pet, with no trial clock and no credit card.
- Photograph a vet receipt or vaccination card and the AI lifts out the visit, vet, vaccines and dates for you to review.
- Weekly AI insights surface patterns such as longer Tuesday walks or slower mornings without grading your care.
- Invite up to six people to co-keep a pet, and an "Added by" label shows who logged each entry.
- Reminders run on any rhythm, and a repeating reminder moves itself to its next date once the day has passed.
- Everything you wrote stays readable if Pro lapses, and Pro users can export the whole journal as a PDF.
How It Works
You tap plus, pick what happened from thirteen categories such as walk, vet visit, vaccination or funny moment, add a line and up to three photos, then save. The entry lands on the timeline, and each finished month folds into a chapter with a contents page to jump back to. With Pro you photograph or upload a vet document, check the extracted fields, fix anything the AI misread, and save it so vaccines, weight and the original file group together by visit.
Use Cases
- Dog owners logging daily walks tap plus, choose Walk & adventure, add a line and a photo in a few seconds.
- Pet sitters and dog walkers join the shared journal and mark their entries so owners see who logged what.
- Multi-pet households log one outing once, tag the other pets, and each journal receives its own copy with an "Also with" note.
- Owners preparing for a vet visit export the full timeline or just the medical record as a formatted PDF.
- Cat owners keep the same Crib, timeline, health records and weight charts, plus Pro insights and monthly letters.
- Partners, housemates and grandparents share one pet journal at no extra cost on any plan.
Why Choose This Product
Tamadoggo deliberately skips the chat interface: the AI reads what you log and speaks up only when it notices something, with awareness rather than diagnosis. The owner describes the app as private by design, with journals stored in the EU, no ad targeting, no model training on your data, and no streaks or guilt for quiet weeks. The trade-off is scope: the journal itself is mobile-only, non-English users get AI writing in eight languages but an English interface, and photo breed detection covers dogs only.

Frequently asked questions about Tamadoggo
Does Tamadoggo support cats?
Yes. Cats get everything dogs do: pick Cat when you add a pet, choose from six feline personalities for the Crib, and keep the same timeline, health records and weight charts, plus Pro AI insights and monthly letters. Breed detection from a photo is dog-only for now.
How much does Tamadoggo cost?
Tamadoggo is free to start forever with one pet profile, unlimited entries, photos, weight charts, manual reminders and family sharing, no card and no trial clock. Pro is $4.99 a month or $39.99 a year on tamadoggo.com, and $5.99 or $44.99 through the App Store and Google Play.
Can I share my pet with my partner or family?
Yes. Invite anyone to co-keep a pet and everyone shares one journal, with new walks, vet visits and photos appearing for all. Up to six people can care for one pet, inviting is free, and when the owner is on Pro everyone sharing that pet gets the AI features too.
Can I track more than one pet?
Yes. Each dog and cat gets a separate journal with its own timeline, health record and reminders. The free plan covers one pet profile, while Pro makes pets unlimited and adds multi-pet moments, where you log a walk once, tag the others and it lands in each journal.
Is there a web app, or is Tamadoggo mobile only?
The journal itself is the mobile app on iPhone and Android, where you log moments, scan vet documents and read the monthly letter. tamadoggo.com handles your account, subscription and the Field Notes library. Everything lives in the cloud, so the same timeline appears on whichever phone you open.
Does my subscription work on iOS and Android too?
Yes. It is one entitlement: subscribing on the web unlocks Pro inside both mobile apps, and a subscription bought in either app unlocks Pro on the web. Web pricing is lower because the app stores' cut is not paid, but the features are identical.
